    Loctite thread locker

    Hi folks, Silly question but nessasary. Does any one know if loctite thread locker works for stainless steel bolts and nuts? Looked on their web site and I couldn't find anything about stainless. I'm going to assume it would be fine, but just want to be sure. Thanks for experience
